Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIn silico and in vitro Structural Analysis on the Interaction of Calmodulin and Calmodulin-Binding Motif of FKBP35 from Plasmodium knowlesiSazlinawatie Aladin, Cahyo Budiman et al.FK506-binding protein 35 (FKBP35) is a peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase found in Plasmodium knowlesi, a zoonotic malaria parasite responsible for concerning cases of malaria infection in East Malaysia. This protein contains a segment known as the calmodulin-binding motif (Pk-CBM), which is predicted to facilitate interaction with calmodulin from P. knowlesi (Pk-CaM). Although this interaction is considered promising for future antimalarial drug … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 2 · 10 Mar 2025 · 4,846 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGelatin Extraction of Alaska Pollock (Theragra chalcogramma) Dry SkinYanan Li, Fangyuan Chen, Jiong Zou et al.Alaska Pollock is rich in resource. And during its processing, skin is peeled as byproducts. The skin of Alaska Pollock contains lots of collagen or gelatin, promising materials, which can be used in food, cosmetics, biomedical and pharmaceutical industries. Extracting collagen from the dry skin of Alaska Pollock is studied in this study to provide a better basement for fully … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 28 Jan 2018 · 9,498 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBinding of the scutellarin to albumin using tryptophan fluorescence quenching, CD and FT-IR spectraJianniao Tian, Jiaqin Liu, Zhide Hu, Xingguo ChenThe binding of scutellarin with bovine serum albumin (BSA) was investigated at three temperatures, 296k, 310K, and 318K, by the fluorescence, circular dichroism (CD) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) at pH 7.40. The binding parameters were determined by Stern-Volmer equation. The thermodynamic parameters were calculated according to the dependence of enthalpy change on the temperature as follows:ΔH0 and ΔS0 … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 13,643 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of pH on the Conformation and Biological Activity of Clostridium septicum Alpha-toxin, a Pore-forming HemolysinB.M. Hang'ombe, T. Kohda, M. Mukamoto, S. KozakiThe effects of pH on the pore-forming Clostridium septicum alpha-toxin that causes myonecrosis was assessed at pH 5.0, 7.0 and 9.0 by measuring circular dichroism and its biological activity. Incubation of the toxin at pH 5.0 increased the hemolytic activity measured in murine red blood cells. On the other hand, incubation of the toxin at pH 9.0 drastically reduces the … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,902 accessesView PDF Cite
